Every inning, from every corner, the awestruck crowd serenading baseball’s best player with an elongated syllable of amazement. Is Shohei Ohtani having the best season by any player in baseball history? Shohei Ohtani celebrates in the dugout after scoring off a home run hit by Max Stassi during the first inning on Tuesday at Angel Stadium. “It’s happening, it’s happening, and I think it’s going to get to the point where … even non-baseball fans become baseball fans just to watch him,” said Maddon. As a baseball player, the more cheers you get, the better you can perform.
